That's an impressive list, TOM. Where's your distributor located? IIRC
you're from Pennsylvania, right? I'd like to try a couple of cases from
that list, in particular the Heresy.

Really??? I've been buying beer from them for years. Now don't throw me out of
the group, but I've been getting Straub 1/4 barrels. They have the freshest.
Upon the advice of my doctor, I switched to draft Straubs Light. In a 1/4
barrel of course. Not being a fan of light beer, I was prepared to be
disappointed. But it's really, IMO, the best of the lights.
I do buy case beer from them. And it's always one of the craft beers, imports,
whatever. They do have one hell of a selection. And it's fresh.
BTW, Millvale was one of the really devastated areas in the flooding of
Pittsburgh suburbs. Vecenie's had four feet of water on their FIRST FLOOR.
Millvale is a ghost town. But Vecenie's is still in business, they are working
out of their warehouse, which is HUGE.

You bet. Tony Knipling was the very first visitor to my website when it came
online in January, 2003, and he and the Vecenie's crew have been good
friends to have in Pittsburgh. Glad to hear they're working through the
damage. Thanks, Tom.
